Description
HistoryAn Old English Sheepdog is a breed of dog formerly used for herding livestock, and now primarily kept as a pet. They are best known for their shaggy grey and white fur which also covers their face, including their eyes, which leads some casual observers to wonder how they can see.
In some areas, they are often known as a Dulux dog, as a result of their prolonged use in advertising Dulux paint.
Temperment
This breed is intelligent, funny, social, and adaptable, although they do tend to seem stupid on first impressions. It generally gets along well with children, other dogs, other pets, and visitors. Like all herding breeds, it requires plenty of exercise, both mental and physical.
These dogs are tender and catch on quickly to things like boundaries and little things such as doing a trick for a treat. These animals are gentle with other dogs and are always willing to play.
